Here are our favorite tips to help prepare your skin for the perfect tan with your IONIQ sprayer.
 |
EXFOLIATE & REMOVE HAIR Exfoliate and remove hair 24 hours before you apply your IONIQ tan. This prepares your skin and allows for a perfect base for your tan. If you do not shave, you can still successfully apply the tan due to IONIQ technology. Hair is neutrally charged, which allows the droplets to pass through to the skin. The tanning only reacts with the top layer of skin and not with the hair. |
 |
CLEANSE SKIN Cleanse your skin thoroughly with a mild soap. |
 |
AVOID PERFUME & DEODORANT Avoid wearing deodorant and perfumes when applying the tanner. These can prevent the tan from penetrating the skin and can leave you with streaks or patches. To make this easier, we recommend applying your tan in the evening. |
 |
MOISTURIZE DRY AREAS Treat dry areas such as elbows, knees or feet with moisturizer right before applying your IONIQ tan. This is to prevent these areas from over-absorbing the tan, which could lead to dark spots. Ensure all moisturizer has fully absorbed before applying your tan. |
